Apologies if this is a daft question, but I was experimenting with the capability string on 3.1.7 and was surprised when I couldnt actually change the default.
On my current server the capability is hashed out in the dbmail.conf and using telnet to connect to 143 I get Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to loopback. Escape character is '^]'. * OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4 IMAP4rev1 AUTH=LOGIN] dbmail 3.1.7 ready. If I add the following line from the man page of dbmail in dbmail.conf capability = IMAP4 IMAP4rev1 AUTH=LOGIN ACL RIGHTS=texk NAMESPACE CHILDREN SORT QUOTA THREAD=ORDEREDSUBJECT UNSELECT IDLE it makes no difference to the CAPABILITY reported by connecting with telnet. If I just add IDLE (which is what I wanted to test) to the line i.e. capability = IMAP4 IMAP4rev1 AUTH=LOGIN IDLE again connecting by telnet just gives [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 AUTH=LOGIN] I have tried editing another setting in the dbmail.conf file (the banner) to make sure I am editing the correct file and thats confirmed. I have also confirmed that there is only one capability = line and that putting rubbish in there (i.e. removing IMAP4 and IMAP4rev1) prevents dbmail-imapd from loading. So is there a reason why the capability string would not be making the change Im expecting (i.e. be reported when I connect to port 143 via telnet?)
